#HealthyResolutions - This is my version of a hearty and equally nutritious soup in a South Indian style. Beetroot is considered as a blood purifier, besides a great sauce of iron, calcium and fiber. So there is nothing like having a bowl of this wonderful soup along with some salad for a light dinner as it is very filling and wholesome.
